Re: Pornography.

As long as Man has created two dimensional representations of the world there has been ponography. l use 'Man' in a non-generic sense, although it was probably a man who first daubed 'dirty' drawings on the cave wall! Men seem much more visually stimulated by pictures than women, hence the failure in recent years of this sort of material aimed at only women,[it was still bought by men!]
l'm suprised that no one objected to pornography on the grounds of exploitation, particularly of women, which l think is a step forward. We seemed more interested in protecting the morals of children, rightly so.
lt looks like we still have a Nanny [State], but we're now grown up enough not to really need her anymore.
